Organised by the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research since 1991, the “Fête de la Science” is made up of thousands of free, inventive and fun events open to everyone throughout the world. It is an opportunity to meet scientists, to discover the work of researchers, to share knowledge, to explore new knowledge and to ask questions about the major issues of the 21st century.

By bringing together researchers and the general public, passion and curiosity, the “Fête de la Science” allows citizens of all ages to discover science in a new light, through images, debates, actions and emotions. It is a way to share a common scientific culture, to develop critical thinking, but also to promote the spirit of reason, methodical doubt and experimentation that are at the heart of the scientific process.

For this second Canadian edition, from November 10 to 27, 2022, many events are organised across Canada, around the theme of the “climate awakening”: shows, conferences, exhibitions, film screenings, as well as educational events organised in schools of the Network of French Schools Abroad.
